2.4.15 compile problem on PPC

do you know what's wrong with this ?
thanks.

I'm seeing this on sparc as well. This is because show_trace_task() is
called from kernel/sched.c, and is only implemented in i386/kernel/. This
means that other architectures that don't implement it will break. The
sparc tree is equally broken too.
